March 11, 2013, 11 years ago
Therese Owen of South Africa's Tonight is reporting that former GUNS N' ROSES members Matt Sorum, Gilby Clarke, Duff McKagan and Slash are heading for South Africa in the form of an all-star supergroup, called KINGS OF CHAOS.
The other half of the group comprises DEF LEPPARD’s Joe Elliot and Vivian Campbell, SKID ROW’s lead singer SEBASTIAN BACH, and COLLECTIVE SOUL’s Ed Roland. Completing the lineup is GLENN HUGHES from BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION and DEEP PURPLE.
Kings Of Chaos will play GrandWest’s Grand Arena in Cape Town on June 8th and the Sun City Superbowl, North West, on June 15th and 16th courtesy of AMP Events and Sun International.
The brainchild behind the band is Sorum, the power drummer of bands like Guns N’ Roses, VELVET REVOLVER and THE CULT. He asked a few of his close friends to form a band and tour the world playing each other’s big hits. So far Kings Of Chaos have played Central and Latin America and have done small tours across Asia.
The band members are interchangeable, depending on their schedules, with Joe Perry from AEROSMITH sometimes making an appearance. This is the first time legendary guitarist Slash will be joining the project.
